Reading one of the post's below - mentioning there's a spoiler included but the spoier included is from LOTR Fellowship.
Just got me wondering - I'd guess that 99% of the people that use this site have seen LOTR - and that most own it so satisy my curiosity is there anyone out there that hasn't ??

And if so - why the **** not!!!!!

Thumbs down

Just voted not seen it! The 1st vote!

I never went to either of them at at the cinema.

But I have tried to watch it (the 1st one). My Mum bought it on VHS (WHAT? LOL!) but go so bored, switched it off and went and did something else instead.

i've seen it more times than is strictly health (Its the only disc i have that i've wanted to watch all the Chat tracks on). I think its fantastic, i'm not Tolkien freak or anything , I could never get into the books (too much discription).

I could go on and on and on about it but i wont, i'll go and have a lie down and think about August 22nd, Novenber 18th and December 19th.

Not seen it, couldn't be bothered to go to the movie theater.

Waiting for the 4-disc R1 in November.

Hell, I haven't watched the first one yet, far more TV DVDs to watch. I'm at the stage where I'll probably wait until the third 4-disc film comes out in November '04 and have a snickers session.

I take it you mean my post, well I did consider leaving out the spoiler warning considering it's such a popular film that's been out for a while but then I thought about how much I hate having the ending of a film or book spoiled (someone ruined Identity for me by mentioning who did it) so for the sake of those who haven't watched it, the spoiler tag and colour change were included.

Never saw FOTR at the cinema.

I was one of those who thought it was strictly for 'Tolkein/Beardie/Trekie/Star War type freaks' and instantly dismissed it as being boring and a load of old tosh!

That was until i borrowed the barebones version off me m8 last Aug...

Watched it twice, bought the ext version in Nov and couldn't wait for The Two Towers in Dec. Saw that twice at the flix and now waiting for the ext version on DVD in Nov.

There's a moral in there somewhere
